You better, I want to buy your stick!

All banter aside, the game looks great. I'm looking forward to getting owned hard and learning from the experience, matchups seems so important in this game, I go up against characters I don't know and I die so quick

The online better be good, or what's the point Namco!!!

batman_oh

was just playing t6 online for the first time in about a year - dear god its complete garbage. Makes me remember why i gave it up in the first place. Lag tactics that dont work in the real game and spamming rubbish/disconnections everywhere.
i dont think i have the energy to bother with that again!
Will try some offline maybe but the series has basically lost me since t5dr - that was the last actual decent game

Ramza

If TTT2 online is as bad as T6 I'm not gonna bother, totally agreed, online is a headwrecker, so much lag tactics and bs that wouldn't work at all offline

Rage inducing for sure

as well as new artist collaboration costumes, more customisation stuff, and Tekken Tunes mode

The amount of content in this game is mental

Doctor DooM

By premium for the WWE thing, do they mean paid for? That would suck, otherwise it's really good.

Detailed guide to Tekken Tunes, this looks awesome (and means I dont have to listen to Snoop Dog which is a bonus )

Really late with this news lol

http://shoryuken.com/2012/07/17/harada-hints-at-two-more-tekken-tag-tournament-2-characters/

Hint 1 is without a doubt Dr Bosconovitch.

Hint 2 sounds like Miharu.

EDIT - Actually maybe Hint 2 refers to a character that's in the Tekken universe but was never a playable character.

I can only think of Tougou from T6 Scenerio Campaign, Sebastian (Lili's butler), Jane, Dr.Abel, Christie's grandfather or Shin from the Tekken Blood Vengence movie.

There's also possiblities of Gon, Violet, Gun Jack, Miharu, Tetsujin, Unknown.

If it's Shin from that ABSOLUTELY ATROCIOUS CGI movie I will avoid even watching casuals play.

I rented that movie from the PS Store to get hype for SFxT, needless to say I deserved what I got :pac:

That tekken tunes thing looks godlike, been on the fence about getting this but there seems to be so much content!

Scavenger XIII

15 points for changing the music.

ACHIEVEMENT

Ramza

They should definitely let unknown be a playable. She's in the arcade mode. Just tone her down and make her balanced (take away her ****ing ONE HIT KILL). She'll appear as DLC anyway down the line

Why would they have Violet if Lee is in the game?

Dr B is a bastard

Doom confirmed for never playing Tekken Alisa:

BigStupidGuy

I just watched Elfen Lied and Alisa is a total knockoff of her haha



especially the rocket punches

I hope this game picks up a good Irish community when it comes out because I actually want to play people in person and not online.

Ya can make a start with T6 man!

More the merrier!

Yeah i do play T6 but I just can not be bothered to put any effort into it.
It doesn't have that thing that draws me back to it but when TTT2 comes out I would like to come down for some of the bigger events like tourneys etc.

Playable Unknown perhaps?

Hopefully unknown was awesome.
I hope we get to learn who she is, well I guess she wouldn't be unknown then would she.

It was revealed who she is in TTT2 Arcade Mode

Jun Kazama is Unknown, Jun is the final boss, and when you defeat her, she morphs into Unknown for the 2nd half of the fight, unlike in TTT1 where she copied everyone's playstyle like Mokujin, she uses Jun's fighting style in TTT2

kewl

Newaglish

That kinda makes sense -

didn't unknown always default to Jun's moves at the start of the round? I used to always use her and Jun as (effectively) a Jun/Jun combo.

In other news, I'm really looking forward to the return of Kunimitsu.

Plus the two charactes look incredibly alike

Yeah that was my guess at who she was, seeing as they look similar and in TTT1 she always starts off with the same move set as her

Any word on if Gamestop is doing any of the pre order DLC here ?

I was wondering the same thing but I doubt it because they aren't advertising it like they do with pre-order bonuses for other games.

If they aren't doing it we will just have to wait a few months to get the DLC for FREE!!!!

Edit: I just read on gamestop.ie that they are doing pre-order bonuses you get the snoop dogg stage, bikinis, 2 characters and some other bonuses.

BigStupidGuy

waiting a quarter of a year to get the full content is just bu***hit. Especially when you consider you'll have to fight oodles of Kunimitsu's online with no idea of the character's moves because you can't take her for a run in practice mode.

You'd change your tune if you played capcom games for a while

This, Capcom wouldn't give you the steam off their piss for free.

righteo sold!

I was thinking of actually buying this game for xBox instead of ps3... better online experience maybe?

XBL is better then PSN, you get what you pay for.

I think the Tekken community is focused on PSN

Really ?, I know a lot of high level Tekken players play on dual shocks, but thats nothing a PS2 -> 360 converter cant solve.

With the exception of Persona 4 before the patch, I cant think of any game were the online was better on PSN then XBL, Ill be getting it on 360 regardless.

Newaglish

Would the online be any faster on XBL? I'm probably going to stick to PS3 anyway..

Ixayek_usurper

I think the online experience is better on XBL.
The games seems waaaay less laggy and I've had far fewer connection drops on XBL.
The no. of players of T6 on XBL is actually really good.
For example, if i'm playing late @ nite, i RARELY get a 3bar game on PSN, but i can comfortably find a good few on XBL.

All that being said, the community are much nicer on PSN.
The players are far friendlier, with much less hate-mail and a lot more GG's and invites to play.

trecs

Old school for me - offline! - less-er lag (if any) and at least you get to see who you're fighting against

BigStupidGuy

Haha plus when you fight people offline you can physically attack them upon loosing.

trecs

Hell yeah! Lolz

Fergus_

I'm gonna be picking it up for Xbox anyway.

What teams are we all running? I'm gonna use Asuka/???? (Gonna play around for 2nd char)

Scavenger XIII

I'll be xboxin' also.

Will probably play AK/Lili as my old main and sub from DR. Would love to use Zafina but she's rather awkward to learn - might put some effort into her if the game actually takes off.

Naphiel

I'll be on PS3.

Most likely going to find what works best between Miguel, Jun, Jinpachi, Leo and Xiaoyu.

Ixayek_usurper

lol!
I'll take offline everyday if its available!

Most likely Hwo/Kaz.
Probably learn Jin/Hei/Lee/Drag as understudies.
